American Antiquarian Society copy 1 has hand colored frontispiece. Bound in full leather.
American Antiquarian Society copy 2 is without frontispiece. Bound in printed boards; rebacked. On p. [4] of cover is publishers' advertisement: Lately published, and for sale at Johnson and Warner's Bookstore, The history of two shoemakers ... As issued? Johnson & Warner were booksellers and publishers at Philadelphia, Pa., and it seems improbable that an advertisement for their bookstore would have appeared on a New Haven imprint. Possiby the wrong advertisement was added when the volume was rebacked. Inscribed: Elizabeth Magruder's book, February 27th, 1812.
